Molluscum Contagiosum Complicated With an Epidermal Cyst: A Case Report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Molluscum contagiosum (MC) is a viral infection that primarily affects pediatric patients, sexually active young adults, and immunocompromised individuals of all ages. Clinically, MC presents as firm, rounded, pink, or skin-colored papules with a shiny and umbilicated surface. Microscopic histological findings include a crateriform invagination of the hyperplastic epithelium composed of enlarged keratinocytes containing inclusion bodies known as Henderson-Patterson bodies. In some patients, including immunocompetent children, the morphology of MC lesions can vary. Giant MC lesions can mimic cysts, abscesses, or condylomas. Erosive MC lesions can mimic eczema vaccinatum. The papules may also be pearly white or reddish in color. Here, we report a case of a Molluscum contagiosum infection complicated by an epidermal cyst.
